MODULE 1

A website is a set of Web pages which are documents accessible through the
Internet. A web page can contain different types of information such as text, videos,
images, animations, and sounds.

HTML

It stands for Hypertext Markup Language which is a standard markup language


for Web pages. It describes the structure of a Web page. It consists of a series of
elements which tell the browser how to display the content.

Example of a simple HTML Document:

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<title>Page Title</title>
</head>
<body>

<h1>My First Heading</h1>


<p>My first paragraph.</p>

</body>
</html>.

 The <!DOCTYPE html> declaration defines that this document is an


HTML5 document
 The <html> element is the root element of an HTML page
 The <head> element contains meta information about the HTML page
 The <title> element specifies a title for the HTML page (which is shown in
the browser's title bar or in the page's tab)
 The <body> element defines the document's body, and is a container for
all the visible contents, such as headings, paragraphs, images, hyperlinks,
tables, lists, etc.
 The <h1> element defines a large heading
 The <p> element defines a paragraph
HTML Elements

An HTML element is defined by a start tag, some content, and an end tag:

<tagname> Content goes here...


</tagname>

The HTML element is everything from the start tag


to the end tag:

<h1>My First Heading</h1>


<p>My first paragraph.</p>

 HTML Tags – used to mark up the start of an HTML element and enclosed in
angle brackets. Tags should be opened (<tag>) and closed (</tag>) in order
to function. When using multiple tags, the tags must be closed in the order in
which they were opened.
Example: <strong><em>This is really important!</em></strong>

Some HTML Tag List with Description


(Complete list can be accessed at w3schools.com)
Tag Description
<!Doctype> Defines a document type
<a> Specific a anchor (hyperlink)

<video> Used to embed video content

 HTML Attributes

All HTML elements can have attributes. These provide additional


information about elements. They are always specified in the start tag and
usually come in name/value pairs like: name=”value”. Some examples of
these attributes are described below:

1. The href Attribute


 belongs to the <a> tag which specifies the URL of the page the
link goes to.

Creating a Web Page Using HTML

Try to create a web page using HTML that you have just learned by using a simple text
editor
:
1. Open a notepad application.
2. Write some HTML (copy the following HTML code):

3. Select File>Save as in the notepad menu.


4. Name the file “index.htm” and set the encoding to UTF-8 (which is the
preferred encoding for HTML files).

5. Open the saved HTML file using an Internet browser. The result will look

Creating a Web Page Using WYSIWYG

WYSIWYG stands for What You See Is What You Get. This means that
whatever you type, insert, draw, place, rearrange, and everything you do on a page
is what the audience will see. This platform was designed for anyone who has not or
does not have prior coding skills. Microsoft Word is an example of a WYSIWYG
platform. Follow the steps below to create a Web Page using Microsoft Word:

1. Open Microsoft Word.


2. Type anything on the page like “Welcome to my Website”
3. Click on File> Save As
4. On the Save As dialog box, specify the filename “Sample Web page”
5. Select “Web Page (*.htm;*.html)” as the file type.

6. Click Save.
7. Go to the folder where you have saved your file. You will see a new folder
generated including your .htm or .html file. The new folder is generated by
MS Word where all HTML files such as visual elements were saved.
8. Open the Sample Web page.htm file and you will see that you just created
a web page using MS Word.
Congratulations! You have just created a web page using MS Word as your
WYSIWYG platform, a technique that you can also use with MS Excel and other
office applications that support WYSIWYG.

Creating a Website Using an Online Application

With the ongoing innovations in technology, it is not so hard to create


websites anymore. They can be created with online applications. One of these
applications is Google Sites which can be accessed at sites.google.com. With this

1. Responsive – your site is optimized for tablets, smartphones, desktops, and


laptops. Phones, tablet, and large screen previews of your website are also
available.
2. Collaborative – your site can be edited together with someone else in real
time and see each other’s changes live.
3. Free – unlike other web hosts, Google Sites can be published for everyone to
see for free.
4. Security – sharing your site can be restricted, making it accessible only to
people you want to share it with (as viewer or editors).

MODULE 2
Online Collaborative Tools

Working together with a team does not necessarily require you to be


physically together. The beauty with technology now is that it allows you to
collaborate with one another online. There are plenty of online collaborative tools
that are available.

What are Standard Team Collaboration Tool Features?

1. Third-Party Integrations

A collaborative tool must


integrate with existing third-party
software such as business
communication tools, project
management software, or chat
messaging platforms. If these
applications are integrated to the
tool, team members can use
their preferred applications
within the
same interface that they use the team collaboration tool. Some of these tools
with high level of integrations are Salesforce, Slack, Skype, Microsoft Office
365, Google Sheets, Dropbox, and Outlook or Gmail.

2. File Sharing and Editing

One of the most important


features of a collaborative tool is
real-time collaboration through
file sharing and file editing. This
with allow automatic syncing and
version control of the project.
Team members should be able
to view, edit, comment on, tag
other users, and highlight text
without worrying about whether
or not
they’re working on the most current version of the document. In addition, it
should offer file storage, searchable file folders, access control to file, and
ensure compatibility with variety of file formats.
3. Video Conferencing

For geographically diverse


teams, video conferencing is a
must. When assessing a
collaborative tool’s video
conferencing, the following
elements should be considered:
 Host controls
(mute/unmute
users)
 Background screen
 Virtual hand raising
 Live streaming
 Security (encryption, password protection, waiting room,
remove/block users)

4. Screen Sharing

This allows the users to


share either their entire screens or
select applications with other
members of the team. Other
collaborative tools can offer
remote screen control to help
solve issues or demonstrate how
a tool works. One great example
is the whiteboard feature that
allows users to share, draw on,
and make
notes on blank pages, presentations, and webpages.

5. Task Management Capabilities

This feature separates a


collaborative tool from a standard
video conferencing software. This
allows the team leader to create
and assign team members tasks
and subtasks to ensure that even
when working remotely, everyone
has a clear idea of their
responsibilities and deadlines. This will also allow users to check the progress
of multiple tasks simultaneously, address missed deadlines, see timelines for
longer-term projects, and even monitor monthly accomplishments. Google
Calendars and Outlook Calendars may be integrated to update schedules,
accept/reject invitations, and let other team
members know when they’re available to meet.

Collaboration with Google Sites

In the previous module, you have learned how to


create your own website using Google Sites. In this
module, you will learn to collaborate with other students to
enhance the design and content of your website.

How to share your website with other collaborators?

1. Open the editable file of your created website.


2. Click the Share with others button on the upper right corner of
your screen.
3. Type the Gmail account of your team member.

4. Choose Editor as the access for your member. Published Viewer access is
used for your intended audience.

5. Click the Send button.


Important Reminders:
 Members may access the editable file of
the site you shared with them by going to the
Shared With Me tab in Google Drive.
 Editors can be removed or be changed access.
 Any files to be embedded in the site from
Google Drive should be shared in publicly before
it can be viewed by anyone when the site is
published.

How to track changes in your website?

In collaborative project, it is a must that whatever changes


made can be traced. One feature of Google Sites is the Version
history which include the name of the editor and the timestamp. This
allows you to restore that version, name that version, and even make
a copy of that version.

1. Open the editable file of your created website.


2. Click the More button (3 dots) located on the
upper right corner of the screen near Publish button.
3. Choose Version history.
4. Series of versions will be displayed.

5. Click the version that you may want to restore, copy, or name.
